>>1 There appears to be an abundance of people that will type endlessly in a debate about whether or not the usage of the word 'bro' is sexist in this particular context. I wont participate in the debate, but I wonder if the data set that they continue to generate can be put to some kind of use. Maybe I could create a markov cyber-feminist bot and a cyber-anti-feminist bot. I could give them accounts for ycombinator and hackernews, make up a random headline and then have them go at it. Perhaps some real humans would join in.
Documentation without example is exactly whats wrong in todays software world, assuming this shit really is supposed to mean what it implies.
Also not gonna read that shit page.

>>9 It would be interesting to find a method that could distinguish between pro and anti-feminist.

To me, the irritating part of this is that man pages already have sections for examples (or info, if that's your thing). All the effort people are putting into writing example usage of wget would be better directed into submitting patches to wget's own documentation.
Alonzo Church on a pogo stick - why would you want to add a[nother] source of third party documentation when you can improve the documentation that caused you to be displeased in the first place?
